Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: I obtained a free round-trip ticket, and the one who gave it to me is an official at the airline company, knowing that I am not an employee of the company. What is the ruling on that? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
If you know that you do not deserve this ticket, if you do not deserve this ticket, it is not permissible for you to use it, because this is consuming wealth by an unlawful means; this is consuming the wealth of people by an unlawful means.
